Supporting Resources

The goal of the supporting resources for the BioNLP Shared Task 2016 is
to provide the task participants with annotations from state-of-the-art
automated tools in order to minimize the time-investment necessary to
participate in the shared task and to allow for participants to
experiment on how to leverage automated analyses provided by existing
Natural Language Processing systems.

Resources and Formats

Available resources are listed below. Each resource is a file to be downloaded, it is the result of a tool (presented tools) on the train, dev and test datasets.Please note that Shared Task organizers are not
responsible for the data quality, the resources are presented as provided by the tools. If you have any questions regarding the resources, please contact: maiage-bibliome at jouy.inra.fr
